My dear schoolmate and friend Betty, I am saddened for you and your family as I read of Jerry's passing. You look so happy together in your pictures. I was just thinking of your beautiful wedding a few days ago and all the years in between us. Jerry was always a good guy when we were in our hay days together. I know he will be sorely missed by all. My deepest love and prayers for you and your family at this difficult time.

Jerry will be missed by so many of us. He was more than a co worked he was a friend that had a big heart. Jerry truly loved his family and would always talk of them being the proud dad and husband that he was. We will miss Jerry and he will live forever in our hearts and memory. We are keeping the family in our thoughts and prayers.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

The first time I remember meeting him was at your lake house on the way to the Michigan football camp. I remember him telling us to take the scooters down to the lake, which I thought was the coolest thing ever. Stay strong my friend...
